The reason why I wanted to pay someone to fix this for me is the prohibitive cost of the dremel vs paying someone like 10 dollars

I personally would leave it as is, seen quite a few people "over" fix, and more then a couple gens with crowns VERY close to the case.

I am going to try this with a new T-48 crown after over dremeling and ruining my first crown. Can I ask what was the vice in the picture that you are using to hold your crown?

Also, where can I buy the right O ring?

here are the pictures. I double crown gaskets

Any leads as to where I can buy a crown and cg to make my crown a bit more spaced from the case? I have a 005 and it's a bit tight :(
